Using Smart Connect

Windows Me™

You can connect your VAIO® notebook to another VAIO computer that has the
preinstalled Windows Me operating system or the Sony Smart Connect 3.0
software preinstalled. You may use an i.LINK

two systems and then use one computer to edit, copy, or delete files on the other
computer. You can also print from a printer that is attached to either computer.
Select the STD mode in Smart Connect 3.0 software to connect with another
computer that has Windows Me preinstalled.

Windows 2000

The preinstalled Smart Connect software allows you to use an i.LINK

®

cable

(optional) to connect your VAIO notebook to another VAIO computer that also
has Smart Connect or preinstalled Windows Me. You can then use one computer
to edit, copy or delete files on the other computer. You can also print from a
printer attached to either computer.
